Has any one heard any more about the merchandise rsps? I thought that we were suppose to get a final confirmation by September 15.

I had to call this morning to see if I got anything. I did receive a "receipt" through the mail, but it was really vague. It never actually stated that I had gotten the items on the list. Also, I didn't see the charge on my credit card on September 15, so I was worried. I spoke to a very friendly CM at Event Services and she told me that they did charge my card (I guess I just overlooked the charge on my CC statement) and that I had gotten all three items. I asked if the advanced purchase things had sold out yet and she said no. I guess that means lots of merch will be on sale at the event! Yay!

Yeah! I finally got a response and my card was charged this morning and I am confirmed for Destination D! Glad that got worked out! They sent another confirmation email, same as before. Still never got anything about the merchandise.

If you are driving, I was told at the registration tables that attendees will be allowed to use the self-parking lot at the Disneyland Hotel. You have to tell the parking attendant in the booth that you are there for the D23 event. It would help to show your lanyard with the Destination D laminate. The rate is $9 and I am told that is with in and out privileges. However, parking is limited and there is not enough spaces in the Disneyland Hotel lot for all of the 1200 Destination D attendees and their cars.

Re: next Destination D at WDW in the spring?

Did I understand correctly that the second Destination D would be next spring in Orlando? I thought that Destination D was to alternate every other year with the D23 Expo.

Also, if the purpose of the second Destination D is to celebrate the 40th anniversary of WDW, wouldn't it be better to do it in the fall of 2011, when the actual anniversary will occur?

It was also said that the topics of the presentations would be the same, but the content would be all new! It will be interesting to watch the theme park music presentation again to see them, not repeat any of the songs used in the DLR presentation!
